Question
A footbridge is required to provide pedestrian communication between residential
areas. The footbridge is crossing a small river with 20m long & 2m wide.
In-situ simply supported concrete is specified by the consultant and closure of the
carriageway is to kept to a minimum or avoided completely.
Data : Dead load of screed, finishes on deck (including self weight of concrete slab) = 20 kN/m2
Live Loading on deck = 5 kN/m2
Ground on firm clay with safe bearing pressure= 150 kN/m2
Design the reinforcement required in all elements (slab) of the footbridge.
